This is a truly very attractive - fully matching, truly used- and/or carefully tunic-removed and actually quite rarely encountered! - pair of WH (Heeres) 'cyphered', officers'-type shoulderboards as piped in the neat bright-pink (ie. 'rosaroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Hauptmann der Panzer-Truppen' who served within the famous 'GrossDeutschland'-Division (or: army captain who served within a panzer-related regiment ie. unit) and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. most certainly moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The neat shoulderboards - which measure approximately 10,6 cms. in length each - are executed in the 'smooth'-lik-, bright-pink-coloured wool (aka: 'moleskin'-wool) and have silverish-grey-coloured (ie. somewhat 'sub-dued'-type) 'upperdecks' and come both mounted onto a smaller-sized tongue attached. Both boards do show some regular age, wear and/or staining (as can be noticed on the pictures). The boards show a pair of fully identical (tarnished- ie. 'faded' and once golden-toned, non-magnetic and larger- ie. regular sized) Gothic-styled, capital 'GD'-cyphers and two pairs of (regular-sized, silverish-grey-toned and zinc-based) pips period-attached denoting the officers' rank ie. function of a: 'Hauptmann der Panzer-Truppen' who served within the famous 'GrossDeutschland'-Division. Both devices are just minimally tarnished and/or equally stained, simply caused by moderate wear and/or decades of storage. These 'standard-issue'-pattern, officers'-type shoulderboards could be used with the regular-style officers-tunics but could naturally also be worn on the specific, black-woolen 'Panzer' so-called: 'wrap-around'-tunics. This pair originates from an extensive collection of shoulderstraps and boards I recently acquired for the web-site. Simply a very attractive - most certainly desirable and actually rarely encountered! - 'Panzer'-related, officers'-type shoulderboard-set: only the first such rare 'GD'-pair in this particular rank I have ever encountered ie. offered for sale!
